human form, this here silver disc would have broken one of your windows,
ordered a pizza and been sick on the cat before you even had it out of
the packet" - esoterica
"spit like
this are one of those uniquely british cultural glitter bombs, the
neon offspring of sigue sigue sputnik and transvision vamp, who have pop
art, shameless commerce, and nuclear war so mixed up that the line
between who's selling who no longer matters. it's just an endless
download of electric pleasures, like a swimming pool full of chocolate
for a love-starved brain. as such, these are not songs, they are
"pop shots", which are the same color and have the same effect
as jello shots, only you don't need a fake id to get 'em" -

"fiercely
modern rock...which reeks of character...in
fact it was the wonderful way they have a rhythm to the playful vocals
in ?asshole? which immediately impresses. the lyrics are clever in
themselves, but the way they ride atop the guitars is superb, as is the
frantic stomp. they also gives us dawdling electric blues in ?beaten
road? and imagine a fetish version of prime time human league and
that?s ?hooked on you?" -

"This is what
we want, bands who don?t want to be like the others, bands who want to
upset things, bands who don?t drive slow in the fast lane ? Spit
Like This have a reputation that flew in here well ahead of them
(actually it made us go and find them) - all kinds of stories of hearses
and selling used underwear on ebay to fund all musical depravity, tales
of being banned from venues because of their following. Who are Spit
Like This? Bats, they?re bats ? throw the Rocky Horror Picture Show
at some kind of punk rock version of Meat Loaf?s Bat Out Of Hell, some
fractured drum machine chaos, some Alien Sex Fiend, Johnny Cash and a
healthy hint of wholesomely sleazy porno and you?ve got half an idea
as to what is actually going on here ? well you haven?t really, that
gives you no idea ? filth, depravity, goths, citizen baiting punk rock
theatre - hey look, I don?t know what?s going on here but whatever
it is it?s good and you need to find out more ? you can go
infiltrate their world right now"
